The Studio

I finally got around to making a page for the sewing studio tonight.

The Sewing Studio (please be gentle)

The Russian has a woodworking meeting tonight. I went to check on my serger today, but due to weather it's not going to be back until Thursday. I'm having serious withdrawal issues. :( I can think of so many projects I want to start with it! I need new pajamas! I want a new jacket! I found the perfect piece of silk last night in my stash! Somebody talk me out of buying a new serger just for the coverstitch, ok? I don't want to buy a separate machine, but I keep thinking of all the things I could do with one. Maybe I'll go cut out some more hats. Wait, I need the serger for those, too. :( woe is me.

Snow today, just a couple of inches, if that. However, we had a lot of pileups on the interstate, including one RIGHT OUTSIDE MY OFFICE WINDOW! A car flipped over onto its side...and was extremely fortunate to not slide down the 50' hill next to the road. There's a railroad that runs underneath that section of highway, could have been a really nasty ending. I think next week we're supposed to be back in the 30's. Yay! This below zero crap has got to go.

I'm off Friday, planning on finishing up the rest of the scarves, presuming I get my serger back Thursday. B&J in Champaign is going out of business, I was going to make the trip but then I remembered that that's the shop in that little mall downtown? (is that right? If I'm wrong somebody mail me) Anyway, I went there once for a shop hop and wasn't terribly impressed, so I'll probably skip it. And I really have no other reason to go to Champaign. Might as well stay home and sew. Saturday we'll be in St Louis for the Russian's woodworking show. He tells me we're bringing home a fence, but I don't think it's for the dogs. ;)
